The 22 groups are in a list of 32 groups disqualified by the poll body and which Brillantes distributed to the media. Eleven of those on the list were already announced in an earlier list released by the poll body months ago.

Brillantes explained that all 32 were denied accreditation by separate divisions and did not appeal before the en banc within the prescribed 5-day period, paving the way for the en banc's affirmation of the division denials. I Wil Serve's denial was promulgated on October 29, 2012.

Brillantes said Kontra Daya was not made to pay filing fees for the disqualificaton case they filed. Brillantes said the poll body studied each group on a case-to-case basis. "Every case is a different case, you have to see the individual decisions."

Brillantes said the poll body cannot yet rule on the fate of at least 5 pending party-list groups because their folders on these groups are missing.

Brillantes would later on identify one of the pending groups to be PhilMus, a group of Filipino Muslims.

The poll body is now doing an inventory of all pending cases.

Brillantes also revealed that they are preparing an omnibus resolution listing the names of the groups who have been retained and accepted into the party-list system. He said it's just taking some time because of the preparation of the majority and dissenting opinions.
